I want to get rid of the waterlines against the engine cover.
Instead of that the nozzles on the bulkhead.

Sorry for upsetting " the Originals" .

Has anyone done that already??
Any info please.
Makes live easier.

Later cars seemed to have the washer jets in the bulkhead, with the piping inside the car.

We've put it back onto the bonnet on our Taimar, as I wasn't happy with the washer jets/pipe being inside near all the electrics.

We did think about keeping the bottle inside the cabin somewhere, to stop it from freezing up, but it was easier just to put it under the bonnet.


Aren't they only there for show anyway, and for the MOT man? biggrin, they don't actually do anything useful, biggrinbiggrin

My MOT Man would not even let me test it in case it made the car dirty he just looked at the rest of the car and said dont worry if the rest of the car is like this i am sure it works it actually did not as i had forgotten to pop the wire back on when she was on the time line at Burghley as i poped it off to stop the kids setting it off when they where sitting in her

Have you checked you can get a water nozzle with a long enough shaft to go through the bulkhead as its rather thick there and i know its hard to get replacment ones for the M series

Hi Andrew,

There is no problem of thickness only the top dash is partly in his way.

So looks solvable.

But any idea/help would be appreciated.

So enough idea's.
Our MOT men always control the water nozzles when they are on the car.
The same with belts, but when they are not in than fine.

So skipp all that and mot is never a problem laughlaugh
